Definitely kept my skin clear for the most part, but I did have to load the product on to get the results I wanted. Also dried me out a little bit since I had to apply so heavily. Other than that, this is a great product

Absolutely love this stuff! It started working it's magic instantly! Especially on this particular scar I'm sick of it's not as noticeable, huge, or even that dark. I would recommend getting a really good moisturizer to put on BEFORE this so that way it doesn't dry out your skin. If you put a moisturizer on after it should still work, but I like to let it usually sit on it's own.

This stuff is amazing for that occasional breakout. If used at first sign of a pimple about to develop, it halts it and "Wa la!" no pimple! If used after blemish is already there it clears it up quickly. I don't travel without it, because there is no time to waste for controlling the occasional breakout.

I'm in my early 30s and I mostly get a break out here and there which isn't that bad but I do have a lot of blackheads on my nose and excessive sebum mostly on my forehead. I used this every night for a week and now just use it every other night and only at night. My routine: gentle cleanser, toner, Clinique clearing gel, moisturizer (always moisturize!). I also ALWAYS wear sunscreen every morning. I don't put one product after another I wait 15-20 minutes before each step. I do believe it has helped control the random breakouts and and control the excess sebum and have only been using this product for almost a month. It's expensive, but a little goes a long way.

I began to develop forehead acne as an adult. The Clinique consulant swore by this product. I used it as a spot treatment and it severly dried the area. Oh but the pimple was still there!!! followed by the skin begining to peel . I carefully rubbed the area when wet with a cloth and I ended up with a dark VERY noticable spot and scar taking MONTHS to somewhat heal. Now , Im even more embarrassed. HORRIBLE PRODUCT!!!!!!!

Hi! Clinique's Acne Solutions Clinical Clearing Gel is actually a perfect partner to the basic Clinique 3 Step Skin Care System. Your 3 Step Skin Care System will cleanse, exfoliate and moisturize the skin, the Clinical Clearing Gel can be used after as a spot treatment to clear acne. I do not suggest the Clinique Acne Solutions All-Over Clearing Treatment unless you have 3 or more breakouts at all times. Have a great week!

Q:

Hello, I want to buy this product but I am currently using the Clinique dark spot corrector & optimizer for dark acne scarring that I have. But because I do still get breakouts can I use this along with the corrector to treat both? If so which one should I apply first?

Hi! Yes, you can use both. You should apply the Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector first. You can follow with Acne Solutions Clinical Clearing Gel as a spot treatment. Thank you for your question and have a great week!

Q:

Hi! I'm confussed in how to use it correctly. Do I should put it in my face and leave it or I have to put it just for couple minutes and claen it? Do I use it and after that put make up on it?

Hi! If you are using it as a spot treatment or as an all over clearing treatment, you will not rinse from the skin. Leave on the skin to heal breakout all day, or all night. It can be used under makeup or at night while you sleep. This is an amazing product and I am eager to hear about your results. Have a great week!

Is this a moisturizer? Or would I still need to use a moisturizer with this?

Q:

I want to try this product and make sure I use it correctly. So my question is, should I use and exfoliating scrub and then put this on my face? Or should I just use a normal cleanser first? And is it okay to use on arms and upper chest area?

Hi! Thank you for your questions. If you have active breakout you should not use exfoliating scrub on any of those areas. It can cause breakout to spread, as it is a manual exfoliating product. Chemical exfoliation is the best way to exfoliate the skin when you are looking to clear breakout. You may want to try something like Clinique's Clarifying Lotion. After you cleanse and moisturize, Clinical Clearing Gel is a great product to use in areas where you need it. It is absolutely ok to use it on other parts of your body that you are experiencing breakout. Have a great week!
